Default Had tree stump ground down, how to fill in hole?

I have a big hole where my tree stump used to be.

Is it as easy as adding topsoil, then some grass seed?

Or there there some tips?



Huh?? What happened to the material that came out of the hole? Mix
the soil with the tree chips and refill the hole - it'll make good
compost.

Not a good idea. If someone wants to use wood chips for building
soil,it's better in a compost heap or as mulch. When it decays, if left
in the hole, then there will be voids or a depression. I would get a
load of fill soil, depending on how large the hole, finish off with
about 6" topsoil, plant grass seed or sod.
